First, the total cost of the HEMS sy...By optimizing the network topology, this paper proposes a newmethod of queuing theory clustering algorithm based on dynamic programming in a home energy management system（ HEMS）. First, the total cost of the HEMS system is divided into two parts, the gateway installation cost and the data transmission cost. Secondly, through comparing two kinds of different queuing theories, the cost problem of the HEMS is converted into the problem of gateway deployment. Finally, a machine-to-machine（ M2M） gateway configuration scheme is designed to minimize the cost of the system. Simulation results showthat the cost of the HEMS system mainly comes from the installation cost of the gateways when the gateway buffer space is large enough. If the gateway buffer space is limited, the proposed queue algorithm can effectively achieve optimal gateway setting while maintaining the minimal cost of the HEMS at desired levels through marginal analyses and the properties of cost minimization.展开更多

文摘This research presents an analysis of smart grid units to enhance connected units’security during data transmissions.The major advantage of the proposed method is that the system model encompasses multiple aspects such as network flow monitoring,data expansion,control association,throughput,and losses.In addition,all the above-mentioned aspects are carried out with neural networks and adaptive optimizations to enhance the operation of smart grid networks.Moreover,the quantitative analysis of the optimization algorithm is discussed concerning two case studies,thereby achieving early convergence at reduced complexities.The suggested method ensures that each communication unit has its own distinct channels,maximizing the possibility of accurate measurements.This results in the provision of only the original data values,hence enhancing security.Both power and line values are individually observed to establish control in smart grid-connected channels,even in the presence of adaptive settings.A comparison analysis is conducted to showcase the results,using simulation studies involving four scenarios and two case studies.The proposed method exhibits reduced complexity,resulting in a throughput gain of over 90%.

文摘Edge computing has transformed smart grids by lowering latency,reducing network congestion,and enabling real-time decision-making.Nevertheless,devising an optimal task-offloading strategy remains challenging,as it must jointly minimise energy consumption and response time under fluctuating workloads and volatile network conditions.We cast the offloading problem as aMarkov Decision Process(MDP)and solve it with Deep Reinforcement Learning(DRL).Specifically,we present a three-tier architecture—end devices,edge nodes,and a cloud server—and enhance Proximal Policy Optimization(PPO)to learn adaptive,energy-aware policies.A Convolutional Neural Network(CNN)extracts high-level features from system states,enabling the agent to respond continually to changing conditions.Extensive simulations show that the proposed method reduces task latency and energy consumption far more than several baseline algorithms,thereby improving overall system performance.These results demonstrate the effectiveness and robustness of the framework for real-time task offloading in dynamic smart-grid environments.

文摘The phasor data concentrator placement(PDCP)in wide area measurement systems(WAMS)is an optimization problem in the communication network planning for power grid.Instead of using the traditional integer linear programming(ILP)based modeling and solution schemes that ignore the graph-related features of WAMS,in this work,the PDCP problem is solved through a heuristic graphbased two-phase procedure(TPP):topology partitioning,and phasor data concentrator(PDC)provisioning.Based on the existing minimum k-section algorithms in graph theory,the k-base topology partitioning algorithm is proposed.To improve the performance,the“center-node-last”pre-partitioning algorithm is proposed to give an initial partition before the k-base partitioning algorithm is applied.Then,the PDC provisioning algorithm is proposed to locate PDCs into the decomposed sub-graphs.The proposed TPP was evaluated on five different IEEE benchmark test power systems and the achieved overall communication performance compared to the ILP based schemes show the validity and efficiency of the proposed method.

文摘To transmit customer power data collected by smart meters(SMs)to utility companies,data must first be transmitted to the corresponding data aggregation point(DAP)of the SM.The number of DAPs installed and the installation location greatly impact the whole network.For the traditional DAP placement algorithm,the number of DAPs must be set in advance,but determining the best number of DAPs is difficult,which undoubtedly reduces the overall performance of the network.Moreover,the excessive gap between the loads of different DAPs is also an important factor affecting the quality of the network.To address the above problems,this paper proposes a DAP placement algorithm,APSSA,based on the improved affinity propagation(AP)algorithm and sparrow search(SSA)algorithm,which can select the appropriate number of DAPs to be installed and the corresponding installation locations according to the number of SMs and their distribution locations in different environments.The algorithm adds an allocation mechanism to optimize the subnetwork in the SSA.APSSA is evaluated under three different areas and compared with other DAP placement algorithms.The experimental results validated that the method in this paper can reduce the network cost,shorten the average transmission distance,and reduce the load gap.

文摘The load profile is a key characteristic of the power grid and lies at the basis for the power flow control and generation scheduling.However,due to the wide adoption of internet-of-things(IoT)-based metering infrastructure,the cyber vulnerability of load meters has attracted the adversary’s great attention.In this paper,we investigate the vulnerability of manipulating the nodal prices by injecting false load data into the meter measurements.By taking advantage of the changing properties of real-world load profile,we propose a deeply hidden load data attack(i.e.,DH-LDA)that can evade bad data detection,clustering-based detection,and price anomaly detection.The main contributions of this work are as follows:(i)We design a stealthy attack framework that exploits historical load patterns to generate load data with minimal statistical deviation from normalmeasurements,thereby maximizing concealment;(ii)We identify the optimal time window for data injection to ensure that the altered nodal prices follow natural fluctuations,enhancing the undetectability of the attack in real-time market operations;(iii)We develop a resilience evaluation metric and formulate an optimization-based approach to quantify the electricity market’s robustness against DH-LDAs.Our experiments show that the adversary can gain profits from the electricity market while remaining undetected.

文摘By optimizing the network topology, this paper proposes a newmethod of queuing theory clustering algorithm based on dynamic programming in a home energy management system（ HEMS）. First, the total cost of the HEMS system is divided into two parts, the gateway installation cost and the data transmission cost. Secondly, through comparing two kinds of different queuing theories, the cost problem of the HEMS is converted into the problem of gateway deployment. Finally, a machine-to-machine（ M2M） gateway configuration scheme is designed to minimize the cost of the system. Simulation results showthat the cost of the HEMS system mainly comes from the installation cost of the gateways when the gateway buffer space is large enough. If the gateway buffer space is limited, the proposed queue algorithm can effectively achieve optimal gateway setting while maintaining the minimal cost of the HEMS at desired levels through marginal analyses and the properties of cost minimization.
文摘Smart cities depend highly on an intelligent electrical networks to provide a reliable,safe,and clean power supplies.A smart grid achieves such aforementioned power supply by ensuring resilient energy delivery,which presents opportunities to improve the cost-effectiveness of power supply and minimize environmental impacts.A systematic evaluation of the comprehensive benefits brought by smart grid to smart cities can provide necessary theoretical fundamentals for urban planning and construction towards a sustainable energy future.However,most of the present methods of assessing smart cities do not fully take into account the benefits expected from the smart grid.To comprehensively evaluate the development levels of smart cities while revealing the supporting roles of smart grids,this article proposes a model of smart city development needs from the perspective of residents’needs based on Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs theory,which serves the primary purpose of building a smart city.By classifying and reintegrating the needs,an evaluation index system of smart grids supporting smart cities was further constructed.A case analysis concluded that smart grids,as an essential foundation and objective requirement for smart cities,are important in promoting scientific urban management,intelligent infrastructure,refined public services,efficient energy utilization,and industrial development and modernization.Further optimization suggestions were given to the city analyzed in the case include strengthening urban management and infrastructure constructions,such as electric vehicle charging facilities and wireless coverage.

文摘A future smart grid must fulfill the vision of the Energy Internet in which millions of people produce their own energy from renewables in their homes, offices, and factories and share it with each other. Electric vehicles and local energy storage will be widely deployed. Internet technology will be utilized to transform the power grid into an energysharing inter-grid. To prepare for the future, a smart grid with intelligent periphery, or smart GRIP, is proposed. The building blocks of GRIP architecture are called clusters and include an energy-management system （EMS）-controlled transmission grid in the core and distribution grids, micro-grids, and smart buildings and homes on the periphery; all of which are hierarchically structured. The layered architecture of GRIP allows a seamless transition from the present to the future and plug-and-play interoperability. The basic functions of a cluster consist of （1） dispatch, （2） smoothing, and （3） mitigation. A risk-limiting dispatch methodology is presented; a new device, called the electric spring, is developed for smoothing out fluctuations in periphery clusters; and means to mitigate failures are discussed.

文摘As a future energy system,the smart grid is designed to improve the efficiency of traditional power systems while providing more stable and reliable services.However,this efficient and reliable service relies on collecting and analyzing users’electricity consumption data frequently,which induces various security and privacy threats.To address these challenges,we propose a double-blockchain assisted secure and anonymous data aggregation scheme for fog-enabled smart grid named DA-SADA.Specifically,we design a three-tier architecture-based data aggregation framework by integrating fog computing and the blockchain,which provides strong support for achieving efficient and secure data collection in smart grids.Subsequently,we develop a secure and anonymous data aggregation mechanism with low computational overhead by jointly leveraging the Paillier encryption,batch aggregation signature and anonymous authentication.In particular,the system achieves fine-grained data aggregation and provides effective support for power dispatching and price adjustment by the designed double-blockchain and two-level data aggregation.Finally,the superiority of the proposed scheme is illustrated by a series of security and computation cost analyses.
